course had fallen into disrepair. greens were what you would find at a goat ranch. existing pro was let go, course maintenance was contracted out and a greens consultant was brought in and the course is now in fine condition and based upon amount of grass on the greens, they should be in excellent shape come spring time. this was all accomplished with members pitching in to bring the course back into the condition that outside players have commented on and are coming to play again on a regular basis.
Would travel: 20-30 Miles
Bottom line: I would play again, Average course for the area, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
